My son and I got to do a little bass fishing today. Caught 9, nothing big but fun. They are not quite ready to spawn despite the warm weather. IMG_2512.jpgIMG_2513.jpgIMG_2514.jpgIMG_2517.jpg

Nice fish everyone! I am still waiting for striped bass season to heat up in NJ, should not be more than another week or two

haha finally got a good warm up. river is way to high and lakes are frozen still, had to do some driving to find a reservoir by Utah border that had open water on the edges of ice. shot that "bee" on the ice and plopped it in the water and started jigging. was great fun. a little fly fishing humor.... 2 guys were fly-fishing close by and I watched them for a bit before fishing to see if was any good. they weren't catching anything so I changed up what I planned to use. I hooked up on first drop and after I released it they asked what I was using. I yelled, WORMS! hahaha they got so upset (its an artificial bait, trophy lake) gave me a chuckle:)

Should have told them "Garden Hackle", that's what my Granddad would have said.:cool:

That's good stuff right there. Too funny. I bet they did get all bent out of shape. Like how you skipped it across the ice then plop. That bee pattern when tied well is a very durable one. Congrats on your success.

IMG_20170323_091628.jpg another good morning. Today the fly Fisher men schooled me at the first hole so I had to move to another. They were pulling in some nice fish too! I knew I should've left earlier and got to that hole first!

You gotta quit rooting in the bed and get down to that fishin hole. Haha. It's ok to be next to last but just don't be last.

Come on Pete everyone knows flinging and sex dungeons don't belong in the same sentence. Smh! But your right, we do need to get together and do some fishing. Once my house is done I'm gone! Be on the look out, I'll probably be somewhere in southwest MT.
